They are legendary among vendors as being difficult to work with and nearly impossible to satisfy. Anyone want to take bets that in two years or less they’ll throw out Adobe (a perfectly decent company with great technology) for a bunch of tendentious reasons?

I think they may find out that this time they’re fighting two or three classes above their weight.

It’s rumored that delivery glitches and installation issues are mainly what prompted baseball’s new media goons to make the switch, and it’s a no brainer. (It also sparked a war of words of sorts between MLBAM and Microsoft). [...]
